Den Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Say what you want about the rest of the game, Jagex has never lost its touch with quests. I enjoyed it immensely. Agreed. Great quest. I'm happy they managed to pull of the update i was looking forward to the most this month. |^_^| I did want one of those wolves as a pet though. My heart melted a little when I walked in and they were chasing a rat and occasionally barking. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Cheefoo Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 That was a great quest. I laughed, I pwned, much fun was had. Except for this one part... [bleep] YOU, NOSTRILLA. Oh, and I was devastated when SUPER SPOILERS Phil ended up killing those two little puppies... I thought they'd just run away or do something cute, not just die like that END SUPER SPOILERS [spoiler=I LOVE MY STATION] 01001001001001110110110100100000010101000111011101100101011011000111011001100101001000000110000101101110011001000010000001110111011010000110000101110100001000000110100101110011001000000111010001101000011010010111001100111111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaths Near Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I thought that was a pretty fun quest, especially when Philipe was asking if it was glitched and then complaining about not enough combat. The developers were trying to give us a glimpse into how they feel. Would have rather not lured two baby wolves to their deaths, but it didn't ruin the quest. Philipe gets 2 free spins as part of his rewards and is introduced to SoF at a young age, Sir Ceril had better lock up his credit card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorator Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Yeah, those wolves were adorable and I'd rather not have harmed them... but considering how 'permanent' death often is in Runescape, I'm not too terribly concerned. I definitely support getting one as a pet - I'd actually walk around with that, instead of growing it and just sticking it in my house collection. Also the wiki says that there are more locations for Phillipe that we just can't yet access, so there's more lamps to be had once they release future quests. (Who wants to bet that he'll wind up in Prifddinas?) That was a standard Jagex quest: not incredibly difficult, but lots of wit and very entertaining to play. I like the idea of scaling rewards, too; it'd be fun to collect those slowly over time as you leveled up and completed more quests throughout the game, but it's also a nice chunk of xp for those like myself with a quest cape. Solid update, considering they're probably putting most of their effort towards the combat rework. Obtained quest cape and base 92 before obtaining any 99s! Currently finishing out my 99s with the (long-distant) goal of comp cape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poppe Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Quest wasn't horrible, though ever since I got a comp cape they've annoyed me as I cannot bring myself to do anything before I finish the quest so I'm always rushing through it. But suppose that's all my own fault. I have one complaint, the tunnel area kept 50% glitching for me. I have a bit of a rock and hard place thing with internet selection. Which is either dialup or hughesnet. I often pick dialup because of hughesnet 3-4 second delay in click action. Many of the new areas 50% load glitch, which forces me to close the game client, reload it on hughesnet, log in on hughesnet, reload the client again (automatically get a game token has ended message when you switch internets), then I can log in and continue. This is really annoying if you consider how many times you go in and out of the tunnel (think I had to do it 3 times). I also have this problem at runespan with dialup D: and seems to be a trend for me with all new updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzuh Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Seems like a fun quest :) glad they are still giving us good updates even with combat evo coming, looking forward to duo slayer this month :) Currently not active on RuneScape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highlanders Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Well I guess I'm in the minority. I found the quest average. The story was predictable and cliché. They made the effort to hire voice actors, yet don't give them anything interesting to say. There are some indie single player games out there that have some really great storytelling. They can hire voice actors, and the game has the technical capabilities to be just as good as those games, if the people who were writing the storylines and the dialogue had a creative brain on them. Shame. Anyway I guess people are happy with the quest because they're used to mediocrity, while RS has a ton of quests it's really more quantity than quality. On a positive note I thought the graphics in the cave were pretty nice. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayc3399 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Quest was good I'm quite interested to see what happens with the hazeel mark on the wall though. And the lamps are a nice bonus.

On a positive note I thought the graphics in the cave were pretty nice.I'd like to agree with this for a different reason: This year's quests have definitely been mediocre. This quest definitely can't stand up to something like One Piercing Note (As another low level voice acted quest), but it's an improvement over the two others from this year since it serves as something more than an introduction to a new bit of high level content.

I felt it hit all the areas nicely... Even combat and left off with a bit of room to see some other quests build off of it.
